Show Notes
On the latest episode of the ArtiGras Podcast, we sit down with Andrew Kato, Chief Executive & Producing Artistic Director of the Maltz Jupiter Theatre. From growing up in Jupiter to producing the Tony Awards and leading a $50M+ expansion that reshaped a beloved local institution, Andrew shares how vision, community, and a “talented & kind” culture power world-class theatre in Palm Beach County.
This conversation explores how the Maltz builds every show in-house, why audience energy changes a performance, and how experiences like the Island Theatre and creative lobby activations (think Creature Features during Misery) turn a night at the theatre into something immersive. We also talk leadership, legacy, and what it means to make arts access real for everyone.
